  • Please interview your brother. I’d like to know about his start up and the process he went through to get this far and his plans for the future
  • Every family has that one person who will break the family financial struggles, I hope you become the one. Amen
  • @LisaCulton
    I'm a doctor and I've worked in different countries. It's a great lifestyle and doctors are needed everywhere. Also, there are opportunities for doctors in Radiology, Pathology, etc. to work remotely.
  • I've learnt more valuable lessons from Ali than being in high school...
  • @DesignDrawDo
    What I appreciate is that you don't say this is easy - you are honest when you say it is hard work (and it bloody is). But that's what makes it work I guess!
  • @howtowithmatt
    Love how you speak on new ideas that very few other people have ever mentioned online πŸ˜€πŸ‘
  • Your videos are too valuable to skip I have gotten so many ideas from this video. Thank you One of the mostly valuable YT channel till date
  • Thank You Ali! Loved how you integrated nuggets from Naval and Charlie :)
  • I thoroughly enjoy the videos! I will agree it's so very hard to get started when you have family obligations too - but I still have hope! Thanks for keeping the content fresh πŸ™ƒ
  • @simon2023
    How in the world do you grasp those valuable knowledge inside your head.? I PROUD OF Dr Ali
  • Your videos have had alot of impact on my life, positive financial impacts. Thank you 😊
  • @devinulbrich
    This video really cleared up my thoughts how I could accomplish the digital nomad lifestyle. Thank you so much
  • @on9francisyu
    I think what Ali good at is he knows how to make titles / content that people care.
  • Ali Abdaal is an inspiration for me. Thats it.❀ I love the way he executes all the beautiful ideas he has and shares with us.πŸ˜‡
  • I like the two ways you mentioned for client hunting: 1. Creator's 2. Boring Business
  • Yes, it's hard and take time. I'm from Peru and I start at 2021, wait 6 months for my first client. Today, I made $700 with short tasks the last 6 months. And now I have 3 clients, who trust on me. Take time but totally pay.
  • @WORLDGYYAN
    The advice given here is practical and succinct. Thank you for making this free Ali! πŸ‘πŸ½
  • @KiaOrion
    great video man. so many gems in here. super practical advice. love it!
  • @alt-thinking
    I’m in this role and I can say right now in some countries freelance work is harder to acquire unless you advertise or use search engine optimisation to rank on google etc
